编译Open vSwitch
(To build the Linux kernel module, so that you can run thekernel-based switch, pass the location of the kernel build directory on--with-linux)
$ tar -xvf openvswitch-1.10.0.tar.gz
$ cd openvswitch-1.10.0
$ ./boot.sh
$ ./configure--with-linux=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
$ make
$ make install
#Load the OVS Kernel Module
$ insmod datapath/linux/openvswitch.ko
初始化OVS的配置文件爱你
$ touch /usr/local/etc/ovs-vswitchd.conf
$ mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/openvswitch
$ ovsdb-tool create /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db vswitchd/vswitch.ovsschema
启动 ovsdb-server
$ ovsdb-server /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db --remote=punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock --remote=db:Open_vSwitch,manager_options --private-key=db:SSL,private_key --certificate=db:SSL,certificate --bootstrap-ca-cert=db:SSL,ca_cert
--pidfile --detach --log-file
启动OVS
# Only need to run this the first time.
$ ovs-vsctl --no-wait init
# Start vswitch
$ ovs-vswitchd --pidfile --detach
我的一个启动OVS的脚本
$!/bin/bash
sudo insmod /home/<YOURNAME>/openvswitch-1.10.0/datapath/linux/openvswitch.ko
screen -dmS stack
# start ovsdb
screen -S stack -X screen -t ovsdb
screen -S stack -p ovsdb -X exec ovsdb-server /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db --remote=punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
--remote=db:Open_vSwitch,manager_options --private-key=db:SSL,private_key --certificate=db:SSL,certificate --bootstrap-ca-cert=db:SSL,ca_cert --pidfile --detach --log-file
# start ovs
screen -S stack -X screen -t ovs
screen -S stack -p ovs -X exec ovs-vswitchd --pidfile --detach
